This will probably just follow their existing precedent in other countries like South Korea and Denmark (the latter limited to dating apps?).

In those regions it’s just a reduction of 3% that covers the payment processing.

So it’ll give more choice but not enough to drive a lot of adoption, since that’s the same or below what other payment processors take as well.

While it goes give developers a choice - it favours large business who can obtain a better rate.

The only pro to apple's model is that developers small and large were on equal competitive footing to consumers.

While I believe it's good that developers have a choice, the reality is that this means that larger companies will always have better margins than small operators, helping solidify their position in the market.
